I'm so nervous that my SS won't like her gift even though I've put incredible effort into making it perfect. I just really want her to love it. Gahhhh. That might be one of the reasons that I've waited so long to send it.
I bet your gift is awesome!!!! Don't stress yourself out. I was doing the same thing and mine finally went postal today...I was stalling too. :)

Aww, that means you put heart and soul into and that's awesome!

 
I went to check the tracking on the gift I sent out first thing this morning, and all that happened today was that it was accepted.  Really?  This is going to take a while.  :-/  It's out of my hands now.

  I think we are all nervous about our ss not liking their gifts but based on what  I have seen everyone is sending awesome gifts.
My SS better not be nervous...  it's a present!!!  I admit I was nervous and now that I have seen the lovely gifts that have been revealed I know what I'd do differently but... PRESENTS!!!  I can't wait for next year's SS.

Glad im not the only one thinking about next year! This was my first ss and it has been such a great experience  I cant wait to do this again.

Should I be worried? I called CS and was told the same thing I see online. Seems like I have to endure more sleepless nights until the box reaches her.
Oh no! hope you get everything sorted out.

 
A box would have to be filled with farts for me not to love it. I hope my ss es are chill and know that all will be well.

Lol agreed. So far everyone has given and received great gifts! I can't see anyone being disappointed.

I think this is my first time shipping around the holidays, I had no clue how slow everything is! But like you said, out of your hands, so just get excited for the reveal!

I am going to be a good girl and wait until Christmas morning to open it.  There is even a gift for my cat Louie and my car (Bow-Chicka-a-wow-wow)!!!!  WIthought evening opening the gifts I am overwhelmed.  Thank you very much.  Warm heart.

You are so welcome!  The second I saw you were one of those people (like me!) that names your car, I was like "That car needs a gift!"  And of course, your cat would have been VERY INSULTED if I didn't send him something!

I hope you enjoy the gifts once you open them!

 
I have a feeling that while shopping for the rest of my Christmas gifts I'm going to end up with a big box of "Secret Santa 2014" items.  I can't stop shopping!

 
The last thing I need to add to my gift went out for delivery on the 3rd. And that is it. And of course the last day in the shipping time frame is the 12th so the company will not help me until the 12th. My claims with USPS have gone nowhere. So so close to shipping my secret santa gift!

Omg I just finished my computer class "final" which was a group of projects (easy enough) BUT freaking powerpoint started tripping balls and not saving....

Mini heart attacks aside- I think I managed to send it off in an acceptable format that will show the work that needed to be done.

I'm unimpressed, Microsoft office 2013, -_- /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

In other news- Santee- I *think* I finally have all of your items! Huzzah! I am not ready to ship yet though- I still have a paper and 2 finals to take... After all of those all-too-important things get completed, I shall send it all away! (I still need to finish wrapping, writing, and hopefully including a little somethin' somethin' creative.)

It's worth the wait santee, worth the wait!

That's a great idea!

 
So - I'm "elfing" for someone, and she's asked me to post her question because she doesn't want it to "give any hints" to her SS. Here's the question: "I shipped my SS gift on Saturday. The package was accepted by the PO in my town. I shipped two day priority. There have been no updates to the tracking information online. I've attempted to contact the postal service to no avail. Please post this in the forum to have folks give me some advice on how to handle this. I'm so worried she won't get her gift! Should I just give it a few more days?"
